So this thing was de-reg. 

I was riding this dirty, no reg/wof. and speed through fixed speed camera. At a whopping 54kph or something. 

The old owner got the ticket. Followed by a ticket for no WOF. Lol. 

Me being a good chap, I paid the speeding ticket. And started the process of getting it legal to try and get off the 'no wof' fine (of which was in the previous owners name). The kids at Retroscooter helped out with recompliance, writing to the Vintage Car Club to get Lighting Exemption forms sorted. Brake deceleration, wiring, adding front shocks, etc. 

Anyway. I've being riding it quite a bit. It's slow as a wet week. But it rules. 

More power at some point.

Nah, would be more of a pain to put a battery in. The paperwork is also for the lack of indicators and in some cases lack of brake light!

So, this thing was a hoot to ride, but always lacked power and handled like a wobbly spring. 

 

Only one thing to do. Add more power.

40.5hp to be exact.
